Fancy a taste of the motherland? This English Bitter is a true classic, with its malty sweetness and a touch of hoppy bitterness. 

Coppers International English Bitter is a brown copper colour with red hues and a creamy head. Think floral aromas, with toasty, sweet malt flavours. 

It has a firm and bitter edge, much like the British charm.

Makes 21 litres (or 56 stubbies) of beer.


Brewing Instructions

Clean your gear. Sanitise everything like your beer depends on it... because it does!

Pour 2L of boiling water into fermenter. Soften your extract can in hot water (10 mins), then empty into fermenter.

Add your fermentables (about 1kg). Stir until dissolved 

Top up to fermenter with water 23L mark. Boom! You've made wort!

Cool wort to 18-22°C. Take gravity reading.

Sprinkle yeast over wort.

Cover, add airlock, and place in dark spot (18-22°C). If adding hops, dry hop (chuck 'em in) on day 4.

After 5 days, check gravity. Take gravity readings on consecutive days. If they're identical and under 1.016, you're good to go!

Bottle or keg. Add carbonation drops or sugar when bottling. Wait 4 weeks (best at 3 months) or keg it for faster gratification.

You're officially a beer wizard! Drink & Brag.

Cooper’s English Bitter

It is still bubbling away in the wort. The last time that I made it I used 50/50 dextrose and light malt, plus 15 grammes of Golding’s Hops and it was very tasty. Just enough bitterness from the hops.
So I’ve repeated that recipe this time.

Coopers English Bitter

Service was great as always. I have heard good things about this tin, I picked up some cracked maris otter (for partial mash), LDME and SafAle 04 as well… quality products- looking forward to this brew being ready!
